Seizures are another one of those nifty little things that can look like anything and everything. Twitching in sleep, losing train of thought, spasms, periods of heavy drool or forgetfulness, outburts followed by sleep are all things to consider. If your doc is taking you seriously then your kiddo should take the developmental tests and the doc should consider a MRI or CaT scan to rule out a physical brain problem. An EEG would be the way to rule out seizures. This can be hit or miss though. Unless your child is having seizures or an abnormal EEG all the time it might not show up on a single session. It may take constant monitoring over time.
My children both started exhibiting at about 2. They started regressing and all the *typical* behaviors started.
